For many years I’ve loved the V-Alpha. My favourite off road barefoot shoe for sure. So when I was told it was being replaced I was a little hesitant. But I didn’t have to be.

Meet the Trailope. Vibram took the whole experience of trail running in barefoot shoes to a new level with a more breathable upper and some fancy new colours. I’m sold!

Take a look and let us know if you agree.

That’s one of the many comments we get from people when they see us out in
our Vibram FiveFingers. While we agree they do look a bit different they’re far from creepy. This is why.

We believe all shoes should allow your feet to move in the way nature intended. That’s why Vibram FiveFingers are designed to look like feet. We all have five toes to help us balance so why shouldn’t shoes have five pockets to put them in?

We’ve all got too used to seeing shoes without toe pockets, so that has become pretty normal. But we have toes for a reason, they’re far from redundant. Imagine how your feet would look without toes?

Now THAT’S creepy!

The V Soul has enjoyed an explosion in popularity this year. But finding a pair has been harder than finding hens teeth. Even we’ve struggled to get our hands on some. Until now!

The whole Vibram Fivefingers V-Soul range is now back in stock ... for now. These super thin, lightweight shoes are idea for indoor training where poise and balance are key. But when the weather’s good they’re great outside too.

We don’t know how long they will hang around for. So if your tootsies are a popular size you might not want to think about it for too long.

You’ve probably heard of it, especially if you’ve been wearing FiveFingers for a while. But what exactly is grounding, or earthing? More importantly, why might your body be screaming out for it?

Electrons are like nature’s antioxidants, they neutralise harmful free radicals in our body and foster a state of balance. We get them by connecting with the ground. While FiveFingers aren’t truly barefoot they are the next best thing.

While it might not be practical to be truly ‘naked’ all the time, FiveFingers allow you to get close as often as possible. You can find out more about
the benefits and science of grouding on the learning corner of our website.

If you truly want to understand how barefoot shoes like Vibram FiveFingers can benefit your feet, it helps to learn a little about how your feet actually work.

To find this out we asked our barefoot Osteopath Jamie about all things feet, in particular how we have two arches in the soles of our feet, what they do and what happens when we support them with conventional shoes.

Which pair of FiveFingers should you buy first? Not all Vibrams are built the same and that’s what makes them so fantastic. Well there’s actually quite a bit that makes them fantastic. But however you move there’s a shoe built for you.

MAXIMUM GROUND FEEL

Love to feel everything under your feet? You might like the V Soul. The KSO EVO or Graspifier are good options too.

MEDIUM GROUND FEEL

For a touch more protection the V-Run is a great shoe. The V-Train, Trailope and V-Trail are also winners.

MODERATE GROUND FEEL

For more confidence on trickier terrain these give you extra protection and confidence. Shoes like the Scramkey, V-Trek or KMD EVO all love hard work.

We’ve prepared a handy guide so you can be sure you get the right shoe for whatever you’re doing. Head to our learning corner to find the right fit for you.

Want a barefoot shoe that can do a little bit of everything? Meet the Groundsplay.

Vibram designed this shoe for the gym and they are a serious workout shoe. But that’s not all they can do.

The Groundsplay has a super thin 4.5mm sole to help you move better while you workout. But why stop there?

They look pretty damn fine outside too, however you want to wear them.

So if you’re thinking about dipping your toes in our shoes for the first time, this may be a good place to start. Workout in them, walk in them, climb in them.

Sleep in them if you want to. Seriously, they’re that addictive.
